"Melbourne has recorded 41C, the hottest day in six years, and Adelaide’s
temperature has reached 43C as a heatwave not seen since the deadly black
summer bushfires has caused “really dangerous” conditions and bushfire warnings
in several states.
Severe to extreme intensity heatwaves stretched from the north-west to the
south-east of the country – developing in Western Australia and moving through
SA, Victoria, New South Wales, the ACT and Tasmania.
Many areas saw temperatures in the low to mid-40s, amid the most significant
heatwave since the 2019-20 black summer. Melbourne’s Olympic Park reached 41.C
on Wednesday, the hottest day since 31 January 2020 (42.9C)."
